SayNoToPistons: Nice pink shoes AND pink short shorts!

This is probably a dumb question but...have you tried taking the bumper off and fixing the alignment? Looks like you did a good job on the detailing though. Now to get some of the touch up paint to fix those rock chips on the front and you will be all set.

thanks guys. k so the "pink shoes" are my Alabama crocs lol. but yea the car was sold to me like that. it was used for autocrossing. i haven't had the time to realign it yet. but with the chips, you can see where i put the touch up paint under the emblem. it doesn't look that good. i'm trying to save up for the MS front and rear bumpers. i want the wing too. but i may have my hood repainted because i don't want to go through the trouble of sanding it and repainting it. i need to get one of those small airbrush things.

it took me about 6 hours from the start of cleaning the rims/tires to waxing it.

bigdaddy, it was a little rough but i enjoyed it.

in one of the pics you'll see a silverish Lexus, that's my mom's. i detailed hers for about 5 hours, she's selling it though.
